Sometimes I love SIM cards. Some times I really hate them. The problem is that there is no consistancy how they are set up. The last ones I got did not require the PIN code to be entered before use. This current batch did need that to happen. And if you put the wrong PIN code in a few too many times you will kill the SIM card until you enter the PUK code. And of course I do not have the PUK code for these sim cards since they are not in my name. And neither does the client. And I cannot ring telstra on their behalf since I do not even know the name of the client since they are being sold through a reseller.

Thankfully this is the business part of Telstra so it will be a case of the end user emailing Telstra and the numbers will be provided. But this is still a PAIN! Personally I like the idea of unactivated SIM cards not having a PIN number, or having a scratch off area with the code. The later are aparently in production but I have not seen them yet. I just need to put all SIM cards in a phone to test them before use – seeing if they have PIN numbers. Welcome to my life…

One of my friends suggested that I have a look at the Audacity Sound Editing Software. Not sure why he thought I might find it useful… I probably will sometimes, but I also suspect that I will not use it very often. But I keep that sort of thing in mind just in case I need something like that in the future…
